Mind you the actual reason I was so excited for this design is because they reminded me so much of the oc I had created earlier this year, and I loved the idea of playing someone like that! Now they just no longer evoke the same feeling 💔

[Boneware @Boneware_]

im so normal about how blizzard just teased an omnic detective with a cane 🥹 i dont EVER wanna be called a trendhopper for locking this guy on release #OWSpotlight2026

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@Spookiookie @UniwatchOW that just makes it worse hello?? ur saying not only is the design not what people came to like but it might not even be an actual new character 😭

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@OWCavalry I swear to god I'll pull up in front of blizzard hq and starve myself out of protest until they change it back. This is heresy

[Boneware @Boneware_]

Being extremely exhausted but also wide awake and unable to sleep has gotta be bottom 5 human experiences 😭

"Focus, M" could very possibly end up rivaling potential man in terms of irreparable slander

@r1muu_ @makingtsforart @svnflvw3r canu never directly defended d7 or cubical tho. also pls take this with just as much a grain of salt as I am, but d7 has mentioned a few times that the artist removed their own tweets. not saying thats what happened, but i think we should be open to the possibility

[nini 🦘 @niniuyuuu]

my personal thoughts #statesmp

please do not harass or threaten anyone, including solev, director7, and the staff team. we all just want a safe environment within the state community.

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@MrSolev That said, I hope staff also take this as a lesson to consider what the public knows before making *any response*. Responding to accusations with "everything this person said is false!!" only made it more difficult for people to hear you out

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@MrSolev Now that I got to watch the full video, I think I owe staff an apology for being so fast to react. While I'll never apologize for being concerned at the initial picture (and I think D7 was misguided as opposed to malicious intent), I should've still waited a few days to speak out

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@r1muu_ @makingtsforart @onyxiana_ @Nymphiou @MrSolev idc how many times I need to say it but the harassment and threats that have been going on are NOT it and just made the situation more difficult for everyone

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@r1muu_ @makingtsforart @onyxiana_ @Nymphiou @MrSolev I gotta agree, I butted in with an unrelated point hoping to explain how this whole thing could be avoided in the future, but I just caused more discourse

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@cubicalwar @MrSolev I really hope the team takes this as a lesson to take more initiative. Zynn should've been gone since at least the dog gif incident

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@onyxiana_ @Nymphiou @MrSolev long story short, ppl watch the d7 video and then see members of the team he accused attack his credibility. So before this solev statement, which side looks better?

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@onyxiana_ @Nymphiou @MrSolev I badly worded that and gave the wrong message, sorry. Being quiet was the right move. My issue is that some staff did respond early, but they did so by antagonizing people for believing D7 as if there were any other credible pov at the time (again, before the solev doc)

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@realKoniri @MrSolev oh so the request was in a group space? this would make *much* more sense, but I really wish solev made this more clear instead of leaving us to put the pieces together

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@onyxiana_ @MrSolev @Nymphiou these situations automatically put the accused in a compromised position, so the standard for their initial defense is gonna be high. solev (and some of the other mods especially) should've been much more careful while this doc was still brewing up, but they took it personally

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@onyxiana_ @MrSolev @Nymphiou His very first response was along the lines of "everything d7 said is in bad faith, I'll elaborate in a bit." that's the blanket statement im talking about. he couldve just said a response is being made and leave it at that, but starting with antagonization made him look bad

[Boneware @Boneware_]

@Nymphiou @MrSolev I 100% agree. Bullying and death threats are way too far. The unfortunate thing is that there was radio silence from most staff for *days* and that made it impossible to draw the line of who's involved, let alone to trust any staff not to retaliate for calling out zynn
